Equestria: New Arrivals

The Fight is done, War is won

Now is the time to settle down

I wake up with nothing but squares to look at, I then look to my left and saw a curtain. I was in a hospital, how I got here is a mystery to me.

"It seems that the cuts won't heal as fast as we thought they would, they seem to be taking three times longer. He may be in here for more than a week your majesty." says a voice somewhere nearby.

"Thank you for notifying me about it nurse, I do hope that he will recover soon. Oh and please give these to him." says another voice.

"Will do, please feel free to visit anytime." says the other voice.

I heard steps going away and something being placed.

Then I saw a white pony in a nurse's outfit come to me and says in surprise "Oh dear! you're awake! I didn't know that you were awake, I could've had the Princess speak to you.".

I just look at the nurse, I couldn't move much.

The nurse then says "Well, I don't know if you heard but, your cuts seem to have a more slower recovery than most cuts. You may be in here roughly around a week, but you can move around by tomorrow afternoon. I did my routine on you just minutes ago before the Princess walked in, you seem to be doing quite alright for a pony that has cuts all over. Anyways, it's a little after one a clock so you may have visitors.".

I continue to look at her, I couldn't move my mouth to speak, it hurt too much.

The nurse then says "Well, I'll check on ya later. Be careful not to fall over or anything.".

After a few minutes of just looking at the ceiling I heard steps coming from the hall, I then hear the nurse saying "Avery, these girls are here to see you.".

Suddenly I heard multiple steps coming to me and then I saw Twilight and others around me.

I say quietly "Twilight! Pinkie! Rainbow! Everypony! You're here!".

Pinkie then says "Well, DUH! We wanted to see how you were doing silly!".

Rarity says "Quite right, since after that enormous fight with Despair why wouldn't we come to see you?".

Rainbow dash then says with a loud voice "Hey Avery! You'd never guess what you did while fighting him! You actually made a Sonic Boom! I call it the 'Sonic Flame'! Since it was all on FIRE and that!".

Twilight then says "Yeah, and Avery, Princess Celestia wanted to see you after you gotten better to tell you something. She went down here to tell you about it personally, but the nurse said that you were still out cold! That has been three days, but now you're alright. And with Despair gone you won't have anymore voices in your head!".

I chuckled a little and said quietly "Well....There may be one voice in my head, but this is a voice I'd rather hear than Despair's." I cough a bit.

Applejack then says "Easy there, Don't be talking too much now.".

Rainbow then says "Like he talks a lot, I mean come on he barely even talks to anypony!".

Twilight then says "Rainbow! That's not very nice. Sure he doesn't talk to most ponies, but that's probably because it's in his nature.".

Rainbow then says "You mean like Fluttershy?".

Fluttershy then says "Oh! Avery! I forgot to tell you that your gift from Zecora hatched!".

I look at Fluttershy and she says "It's true! It's a cute little blue birdy!".

I smiled, I've always liked birds.

Pinkie suddenly says "Hey Avery, who're these cards from?".

I look over at her to see two cards on a table, one with the symbol of the sun on it and one with the moon.

I say quietly "I'm not sure.".

Pinkie then says "Well why don't we read them and find out?!" she reaches over to grab them.

Then Twilight says "Pinkie! If the cards are for Avery then he should read them first.".

Pinkie then said "Oh! Oops, sorry Avery!".

Rainbow then says "Anyways, Twilight what did ya mean earlier when you said that Avery not really talking to others is in his nature?".

Twilight then answers "What I mean is that he has a quiet nature, he doesn't like to talk unless he's spoken to, he's more of a thinker than a speaker, and usually hides most feelings.".

I just stare at Twilight as she said that.

Rainbow then says "Oh, I get it now.".

I then remember something and say quietly "Hey Twilight, what happened to my bag?".

Twilight then looked at me and said "Oh, your bag is at my place. Princess Celestia sent it to me to hold onto until you recovered. Zecora dropped by and told me about your cure for your fire singing ability, she said that you had to wait about ten more days until you could drink it."

I nod my head, and say quietly "Well could you bring my bag over next time you come here? I would like to have it.".

Twilight then says with a smile "Of course".

We then talked and talked until the nurse said it was time to go, I said my goodbyes and looked at the nurse.

The nurse said "Well, your friends sure do care about you for staying here that long! Anyways, it's time to get some sleep. Tomorrow's a brand new day!".

I then say quietly "You got that right.".

The nurse smiled at me and left the room. I turned my head as slowly as I could to not get any pains and looked out a nearby window, the moon was out once again. I sighed happily and closed my eyes and fell swiftly asleep.

In the morning I woke up and looked around, it was still the same room as before, nothing new. I turned my head a little and I could actually move it with ease now. I could finally move my body with less pain that I was feeling before. I looked over at the cards on the table beside me and picked them up with magic, I made the one with the sun symbol hover over to me and opened it. It read:

I do hope you get well soon, you just saved all of Equestria and for that I have something for you. Come meet me at the palace when you are fully recovered. Sincerely, Princess Celestia

I then placed it next to me and made the other card hover to me and opened it. It said:

Avery, when you said all that stuff about me in the Everfree I felt like telling you the same, only I didn't have it in me to say so. When you get a chance come to the palace and meet with me, I have something to give you. Get well soon! With love, Princess Luna

There was a little doodle on the bottom of the card. I wondered what it was that Luna would want to give me, as a matter of fact what was Princess Celestia going to give me??

After that things went on its normal route, the nurse checked up on me, Twilight brought my bag back to me and we talked for a bit, other visitors dropped by to thank me for what I've done, and Fluttershy brought over the blue bird that she said that was the egg and it was really a blue Phoenix and I named it "Sapphire". After that day ended a new one began, and it just repeats until I finally get out of the hospital. On the day I get out of the hospital Twilight and the others were there to greet me.

Twilight says "Where do you want to go first before you meet the Princess?".

I then say "The gem store in town, I want to get the moonstone in a necklace for somepony.".

Twilight smiles and says "Alright" she turns around and starts to walk to town, we all follow behind.

We soon enter the Gem store and the owner then says "Welcome! What can I get ya?".

I then walk up to him and say "Hello again, I would like to get the moonstone in a necklace for somepony.".

The owner then laughed and said "Hey! It's you! Welcome back! And of course! I'll get that moonstone in a necklace in no time!".

I then give the moonstone to the owner and he went back to go put it in a necklace.

Rainbow then asked "You met this guy before?".

I answered "Yes, it was before I had my vision. I don't know his name but he was nice to me.".

Soon the owner came back with the moonstone in a beautiful golden necklace saying "There we are, a moonstone in a polished gold necklace! And say, what happens to be your name kid?".

I take the necklace and place it in my bag, I turn to the owner and say "My name's Avery. What is your name?".

The owner then says "Name's Emerald Flash, nice to meet ya Avery!".

I bow my head to Emerald and say "A pleasure to meet you as well.".

Emerald then says "You can keep the necklace for free, it's the least I can do for a hero.".

I say "Thanks but I'm no hero.".

Emerald then says "Whatever mate, just invite me to your wedding if ya get married!" he laughs.

I then leave the store with the others following.

Twilight then says "Well Avery, you ready to go see the Princess now?".

I look inside my bag, there laid the moonstone necklace, the cure Zecora gave me, and the two cards.

I then looked at Twilight and said "Yes, I do believe so.".

Twilight then smiled and said "Alright, then everypony gather around. I'm going to teleport us there.".

Everyone did gather around Twilight as so did I, then Twilight used her magic to make us teleport to the palace. We soon arrived somewhere, I didn't know where cause the teleport made me completely dizzy and I stumbled around.

I bumped into something soft and then a voice said "Well, seems that we're a bit lovey right now".

I finally began to see clearly and saw that I bumped into Princess Celestia.

I backed up and said "S-Sorry" with my head down.

Princess Celestia then said "Oh it's quite alright Avery. Now I wanted you here because I found something....disturbing about you.".

I then quickly look at Princess Celestia in confusion.

She continued speaking "I found a very old tablet while looking through records of the past to see if you were in any of them, the tablet showed you....only you transformed into a monster. it seemed that it foretold that you were going to destroy everything in your path in the future.".

I looked at Princess Celestia in disbelief.

She then says "That's what I've found out about some of the tablet, I'm still figuring out the rest of it. Anyways enough about that, I was going to give you something. Guards, bring it in.".

I hear steps coming from my left and look over and see two guards carrying something covered with a sheet.

Princess Celestia says "Avery, because you have saved Equestria and put a stop to Despair's evil reign, I'm giving you this." the guards took the cover off and showed a set of black and purplish armor.

She continues "This is the armor of the night guard, it allows speed and flexible movement.".

I just look at it in amazement, the armor shined as the sun hit it through the window.

I then say "I really like it Princess, but could you keep it safe until I really do have a time to use it.".

Princess Celestia says "Of course. Take it to the Elements Chamber.".

The guards then did what they were told and left with the armor. Suddenly I heard steps coming from another direction and look to where it was coming from.

Luna soon appeared saying "Tia, we're out of that fancy juice. Do you think we cou-" she looks over at me "Avery! When did you get here?".

Twilight says "We actually arrived a few minutes ago.".

Luna then says "Oh? I didn't expect you to be here today.".

I just looked at Luna for a while as she said this.

I then say "Uh Luna? I have something here for you.".

Luna then looked at me and said "Really? Something for me? After all that you've been through you want to give somepony something? What is it?".

I then slowly take out the moonstone necklace with magic and say "It's this....I'd thought it would look good on you.".

Luna then takes the necklace with her magic and looks at it.

She then suddenly shouted with a HUGE voice "THANK YOU AVERY!" the blast of the voice was so strong that it blew me back and I tumbled and softly hit the wall behind me.

I looked at Luna in surprise, she had a hoof over her mouth and says "O-Oops, I guess that sometimes gets out ha ha...".

I then got up and said "Wow...That was wild.".

Luna looked down quickly and said "Sorry! I didn't mean it!".

I then look at her and say "It's ok, at least I know another reason why I like you now!" I laugh nervously.

I then saw Luna look up in surprise and look at the necklace again, she then put it on.

Pinkie then suddenly says "Well Avery, are ya up for a party?!".

I turn to her and say "Are you kidding? I've been waiting for one to begin all week!".

Pinkie then grins widely and disappears rather quickly. I look around and then suddenly a loud boom sounded, I then saw a bunch of streamers fly and other stuff fly by as well. Music began to play and Pinkie appeared again in the middle of the room dancing.

I then say "Well! This is more like it!".

I looked around and saw everyone dancing to the music, including Luna and Princess Celestia. I then listened to the music for a bit and started to get a feel for it, I soon danced how the music playing. All the day and through the night, we danced and sang and partied until we fell, it was the best day out of many of my life.
